Provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.
What We Do
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ozaukee (BBBSOZ) serves children, ages 5-17, needing and wanting a mentor within a community-based or school-based service area. The Community-based service area matches youth with volunteer mentors who spend a minimum of three hours, twice a month with the youth in the community. The School-based service area matches youth in grades K-8 that were referred by school personnel for academic and social needs. Mentors meet with youth one hour a week at the youth’s school. BBBSOZ collaborates with community partners and school districts to address community needs and recruits, screens, and enrolls both youth and volunteer mentors. Furthermore, the program develops safe and appropriate match relationships between mentors and youth and provides professional supervision to all matches to assure successful and impactful relationships for youth.
